You come home late at night
You tell me it's all right
But something must be wrong
I wanna hold you close
But your reaction shows
You keep me hanging on

I'm tired of all your lies
Your silly alibies
Don't wanna play that game
If you don't know the rules
I'll send you back to school
You put a man to shame

Give it up, give it up
I just wanna make it stop, make it stop
I know I'm not the only one, only one
Maybe you're the lonely one, lonely one
Give it up, give it up
I just wanna make it stop, make it stop
'cause I know you bring me down, bring me down
The lover of my life

What happened to our plans
We've got a one night stand
You'd better let it be
If there's another man
I'll do the best I can
To bring you back to me

Give it up, give it up
I just wanna make it stop, make it stop
I know I'm not the only one, only one
Maybe you're the lonely one, lonely one
Give it up, give it up
I just wanna make it stop, make it stop
'cause I know you bring me down, bring me down
The lover of my life

Give it up, give it up
I just wanna make it stop, make it stop
I know I'm not the only one, only one
Maybe you're the lonely one, lonely one
Give it up, give it up
I just wanna make it stop, make it stop
'cause I know you bring me down, bring me down
The lover of my life

Give it up, give it up
I just wanna make it stop, make it stop
I know I'm not the only one, only one
Maybe you're the lonely one, lonely one
Give it up, give it up
I just wanna make it stop, make it stop
'cause I know you bring me down, bring me down
The lover of my life

Computer on the move
Gonna' make your body groove
Gonna' hold you tight and lift you to the top
If your feeling kind of low
Press the trigger in you go
And you better never wanna' make it stop

Sample City
Sounds so pretty
If they bit is feeding human touch
Sample City
More than pretty
Apparently it turns you too whatever it does so much

Your feeling like a clown
If you enter sample town
All the finest songs are hidden in a chip
With the funny noise around
Is it music is it sound
So you travel on a psychedelic trip

(Repeat the middle verus twice)


. . .



La la la la la la, la la la la la la
My Cherie Amour, lovely as a summer day
My Cherie Amour, distant as the milky way
My Cherie Amour, pretty little one that I adore
You're the only one my heart beats for
How I wish that you were mine

In a cafe or sometimes on a crowded street
I've been near you, but you never noticed me
My Cherie Amour, won't you tell me how could you ignore
That behind that little smile I wore
How I wish that you were mine

La la la la la la, la la la la la la la
La la la la la la, la la la la la la
Maybe someday you'll see my face among the crowd
Maybe someday I'll share your little distant cloud
Oh Cherie Amour, pretty little one that I adore
You're the only girl my heart beats for
How I wish that you were mine

My Cherie Amour, lovely as a summer day
My Cherie Amour, distant as the milky way
My Cherie Amour, pretty little one that I adore
You're the only one my heart beats for
How I wish that you were mine

La la la la la la, la la la la la la la
La la la la la la, la la la la la la
La la la la la la, la la la la la la la
La la la la la la, la la la la la la
La la la la la la

Got cha, got cha loco loco
Got cha, got cha loco
Got cha, got cha loco loco
Got cha, got cha loco

People laughin'
They got time to relax
They all say hello

They don't worry
They don't mind
They're OK
Happy kind of loco

They don't worry
They don't mind
They're OK
Happy kind of loco

Too much work and
Too much of everything
Can make it for a man
That's all alone
Let things go
You'll find out
What crazy means of madness
Of life is everywhere you go

Got cha, got cha loco loco
Got cha, got cha loco
Got cha, got cha loco loco
Got cha, got cha loco

Got cha, got cha loco loco
Got cha, got cha loco
Got cha, got cha loco loco
Got cha, got cha loco

Everybody needs a chance
Life is here
Learn to let things go

What's your hurry
Who's to blame
Right is bright
When you're playing loco

What's your hurry
Who's to blame
Right is bright
When you're playing loco

So you're down
You end up a lonely man
You're looking for a friend
But they're all gone
Let things go
You'll find out
What crazy means of madness
Of life Is everywhere you go

Got cha, got cha loco loco
Got cha, got cha loco
Got cha, got cha loco loco
Got cha, got cha loco

Got cha, got cha loco loco
Got cha, got cha loco
Got cha, got cha loco loco
Got cha, got cha loco

I WAS WALKIN' DOWN THE STREET
CONCENTRATIN' ON TRUCKIN' RIGHT
I HEARD A DARK VOICE BESIDE OF ME
AND I LOOKED 'ROUND IN A STATE OF FRIGHT
I saw four faces one mad a brother from the gutter
They looked me up and down a bit and turned to each other

(I say) I don't like cricket-A OH NO I love it-A Yeah
I don't like cricket-A NO NO I love it-A Yeah

Don't you walk through my words you got to show some respect
Don't you walk through my words 'cause you ain't heard me out yet

WELL HE LOOKED DOWN AT MY SILVER CHAIN
HE SAID "I'LL GIVE YOU ONE DOLLAR"
I SAID "YOU'VE GOT TO BE JOKING MAN
IT WAS A PRESENT FROM ME MOTHER"
He said "I like it I wan' it I'll take it off your hands
An' you'll be sorry you'd crossed me
You'd better understand that you're a long, a long way from home"

(and I say) I don't like reggae-A NO NO I love it-A HEY
I don't like reggae-A Yeah Yeah I love it-A Oh Yeah

Don't you cramp me style don't you queer me pitch
Don't you walk through my words 'cause you
Ain't heard me out yet

I HURRIED BACK TO THE SWIMMING POOL
SINKIN' PINA COLADA
I HEARD A DARK VOICE BESIDE ME SAY
"would you like something hotter"
She said "I've got it you wan' it my harvest is the best
And if you try it you'll like it and wallow in the
Dreadlock holiday, dreadlock holiday, dreadlock holiday"

(and I say) don't like jamaica OH NO I love her HEY
Don't like jamaica OH NO I love her OH YEH

Don't you walk through my words you got to show some respect
Don't you walk through my words 'cause you ain't heard me out yet

I don't like cricket-A OH NO I love it-A dreadlock holiday
I don't like reggae-A OH NO I love it-A dreadlock holiday
Don't like jamaica HEY I love her dreadlock holiday
I don't like cricket-A OH NO I love it-A dreadlock holiday
I don't like reggae

On the first day of spring
They heard the news
The word spread like fire
That she had fallen
The fields of that day
Were watered with tears
Tears that were cried
For Chica Da Silva

Chica Da, Chica Da, Chica Da, Chica Da Silva
Chica Da, Chica Da, Chica Da, Chica Da Silva
Chica Da, Chica Da, Chica Da, Chica Da Silva
Chica Da, Chica Da, Chica Da, Chica Da Silva

She was young and brave
The prime of her life
Fought for her country
Became a spy
And men told the secrets
Once looked in her eyes
They laid in the arms
Of Chica Da Silva

The game that she played
Couldn't last very long
Luck she relied on
When they had all gone
Her hands tied together
Back on the wall
They shot the life
From Chica Da Silva

Chica Da, Chica Da, Chica Da, Chica Da Silva
Chica Da, Chica Da, Chica Da, Chica Da Silva
Chica Da, Chica Da, Chica Da, Chica Da Silva
Chica Da, Chica Da, Chica Da, Chica Da Silva

On the first day of spring
